1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

objectiveInfant cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) increases intestinal permeability leading to endotoxemia. Alkaline phosphatase (AP) reduces endotoxin toxicity in vitro but its effects on endotoxemia in human disease are poorly understood. We assessed the association between serum AP activity and endotoxemia in infants undergoing CPB and determined the effect of ex vivo addition of AP on endotoxemia.

methodsProspective cohort study of 62 infants ≤120 days of age undergoing CPB. AP activity and Endotoxin Activity Assay (EAA) were measured pre-operatively, during rewarming, and 24 h after cardiac intensive care unit admission. In 22 subjects, EAA was measured in pre-operative and rewarming whole blood samples with/without addition of 1,600 U/L of human liver AP.

resultsAP activity decreased during CPB (mean decrease 94.8U/L; P < 0.0001). Median EAA was 0.41 pre-operation, rose to 0.52 (P < 0.05) during rewarming, and remained stably elevated at 24 h. Subjects with low pre-operative AP activity had significantly higher pre-operative (0.47 vs. 0.36; P < 0.05) and rewarming (0.59 vs. 0.43; P < 0.01) EAA with a trend toward higher EAA at 24 h (0.52 vs. 0.45; P = 0.12). Subjects with low rewarming AP activity showed similar differences that did not reach statistical significance. Ex vivo addition of human liver AP decreased pre-operative EAA by 29% (P < 0.001) and rewarming EAA by 51% (P < 0.0001).

conclusionEndotoxemia is common in infants undergoing CPB. Native AP activity and endotoxemia are inversely related and ex vivo addition of exogenous AP reduces whole blood EAA. Future research should evaluate AP as a therapy to reduce the harmful effects of endotoxemia following infant CPB.
